March 2026 Security Council Nominee Selection
- We portioned out voting power among 3 different candidates.
- 2M was allotted to the Blockful team. We have had the opportunity to observe their active contributions to various DAOs from a governance security perspective, specifically via their Anticapture product. We think their efforts in this space brings a strong perspective to the council.
- Aragon received 1M of our votes. Their revitalization in the governance space over the past year or so, despite an overall decline in the governance market, has been commendable. We appreciate their efforts and believe they will make a strong candidate for the council.
- The remaining 683k of our voting power went to Zellic due to their expereince in the Council during Cohort 2—and key role on the SEAL team.

- Rust/C++ Devs: Via Stylus, devs can build more complex applications.
- Heavy Users: Advanced trading bots and privacy tech can be made cheap enough for daily use due to gas cost reduction. Resource competition also falls due to the multidimensional gas aspect.
- ARB Ecosystem: By supporting MultiVM, Arb creates a tech moat that forces high-performance apps to stay, hopefully locking in liquidity and dev talent.
